Preschool

Our preschool has been serving the community as a Christian Montessori based education program since 2005. We strive to provide a rich learning experience for our preschoolers through an atmosphere based on God’s great Love, the worth of each individual child, and the mutual respect for the feelings of others. We are committed to help build character and life skills in your child that will help prepare them for Kindergarten. Your child will have an opportunity to learn and grow in all areas of development.

SPIRITUALITYChildren experience daily Bible stories, prayers and songs. Once a week we have chapel time in the classroom.

EMOTIONALLYThrough role modeling, children will learn to express their emotions positively. We will help give children the language to express how they feel.

SOCIALLYChildren learn to interact with each other through daily activities. The children are not restricted by age in socializing with each other. Older children learn nurturing skills in dealing with those younger than themselves. Younger children learn appropriate behavior by observing the older children.

INTELLECTUALLYChildren will work in all areas of the curriculum. Pre-math, pre-language, and pre-writing skills are taught using concrete materials. Children are also provided with visual discrimination activities, phonic sound activities and tactile activities. The Science area provides the children with simple experiments and unit activities. Practical Life teaches life experiences such as pouring, squeezing, spooning, washing dishes, etc. Art Centers encourage the children to express themselves artistically through color and drawing, painting, play dough, etc.

PHYSICALLYChildren have outdoor play time every day (weather permitting). Through movement activities with music, relay games, and obstacle courses with jumping, running, climbing, and hopping children practice their gross motor skills.
